2027: Matawalle Gifts 8 SUVs To 8 Zamfara Lawmakers

The Minister of State for Defence and Convener of Tinubu Again Movement, Dr Bello Matawalle, has presented eight Sports Utility Vehicles (SUVs) to eight members of the Zamfara State House of Assembly. The lawmakers had reversed their earlier decision to leave the All Progressives Congress (APC) and reaffirmed their loyalty to the party and commitment to President Bola Tinubu’s re-election in 2027.

Presenting the vehicles on behalf of the minister on Wednesday Hon. Yazid Shehu Danfulani, said the gesture fulfilled Matawalle’s promise to empower the lawmakers and strengthen party unity in the state. He said the minister remained committed to their well-being and that the legislators would be integrated into the Tinubu Again Movement to mobilise grassroots support for President Tinubu and other APC candidates.

The beneficiaries are Aliyu Ango Kagara (Talata Mafara South), Ibrahim Tukur Bakura (Bakura), Faruk Musa Dosara (Maradun I), Bashir Abubakar Masama (Bukkuyum North), Mukhtar Nasiru Kaura (Kaura North), Nasiru Abdullahi (Maru North), Bashar Bello (Bungudu West) and Bashar Aliyu (Gummi I).

On October 18, the minister facilitated the lawmakers’ visit to President Tinubu at the Presidential Villa, where they pledged support for his re-election. Speaking on behalf of his colleagues, Hon. Aliyu Ango Kagara thanked Matawalle for his intervention and pledged to work for Tinubu’s re-election in the 2027 presidential election.
